This is my era of My Little Ponies.. I actually had this one too!! It's name is Mimic and it's a cool light green color with a bright yellow-green and magenta-red mane.. I tried to use an eye popping color on my water line

Here's my look:

Here's what I used:

EYES

Base- NYX JP in Horseraddish

Lid-120- light green

Crease-120 red + pink and 88 palette (dark green) in the outer crease

Highlight- Ulta in Iceland

Liner- On top I used NYX JP in Rocky Mountain Green, on the bottom I used Hard Candy Take Me Out Liner in Ahi with 120 palette (dark green) with Claire's sparkles (yellow and green) and NYX JP in Cherry and Hot Pink on the waterline.

After doing a Christina Aguilera look I decided to do a look based on another pop princess, Britney Spears. Now I have done many looks from Britney, because she is awesome :) This look in particular is from vintage Britney from her music video "Crazy" a video which I absolutely loved at the time and still do... I remember staying up late one night memorizing the dance break in the video with my best friend. Even dressed like her for Halloween curly hair and all.

You will notice that I did something new with my hair, I decided to fall into the ombre trend, but instead of doing dark on top and blonde on the bottom (which is what my hair looked like while my highlights were growing out... and I couldn't stand) I decided to go with the Reversed Ombre, that way I can keep my Blonde hair on top and Blonde on the bottom...

There's a handy dandy site that gives an encyclopedia for My Little Ponies http://mlp.imagesofher.com/index.php (but not the Gen 1's I used to play with) I came across Fancy Free, she was really cute and it was a great opportunity to do a purple gradient type look. I really love doing looks with sparkles, especially when I do My Little Pony looks.

I honestly can't tell you how many times I tried to recreate this look whether it be getting the lipstick color just right or the liner drawn in perfectly. Ok this probably was the 4th time I have tried to do this look and I just was not happy with the outcome. This time I think I finally got it right.
